Bills re-sign OT Daryl Williams to three-year, $28.2 million deal

The Buffalo Bills re-signed right tackle Daryl Williams to a three-year, $28.2 million deal on Friday, reports NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. 

The deal prevents Williams from hitting free agency on Monday. He would have been one of the most coveted offensive linemen on the market this year after a solid 2020 campaign. 

Williams signed a one-year, $2.25 million deal with the Bills last year after spending five seasons with the Carolina Panthers. He had six penalties and played 96% of snaps on offense last season. 

The 28-year-old is the second key player to re-sign with the Bills before free agency. Buffalo signed linebacker Matt Milano to a four-year deal on Thursday.
